Lyrics
You may have called him this
And you may have heard a thing
But he was once the greatest wrestler
That ever wrestled in a ring
Then along came another
Who knocked him around a few degrees
And tried to make him cry uncle
But he wouldn't beg nor would he plead
There once was a once was
That once was a was
Until their past caught up with them
Like an ill fitting glove
You may have yelled the boo's
And you may have yelled you rat
But he was once the greatest player
That ever came up to bat
Then along came another
Who's three balls struck him out
And tried to make him cry tears
But he wouldn't spit nor would he shout
There once was a once was
That once was a was
Until their past caught up with them
Like an ill fitting glove
You may have called them this
And you may have called them that
But they once was that once was
That had it all down pat
Then along came another . . .
And you may have heard a thing
But he was once the greatest wrestler
That ever wrestled in a ring
Then along came another
Who knocked him around a few degrees
And tried to make him cry uncle
But he wouldn't beg nor would he plead
There once was a once was
That once was a was
Until their past caught up with them
Like an ill fitting glove
You may have yelled the boo's
And you may have yelled you rat
But he was once the greatest player
That ever came up to bat
Then along came another
Who's three balls struck him out
And tried to make him cry tears
But he wouldn't spit nor would he shout
There once was a once was
That once was a was
Until their past caught up with them
Like an ill fitting glove
You may have called them this
And you may have called them that
But they once was that once was
That had it all down pat
Then along came another . . .
